Food as Fashion


For my blog I have chosen 15 fashion images that are related to food. After looking at a range of different collections it was brought to my attention that food has been featured in many different types of collections. Whilst collecting my images it is clear that some of the outfits have a very clear relation to different foods, whereas other only have a subtle connection which take more focus to figure out that they are food related. It has been brought to the media’s attention over the past few years of the weight of models being underweight, therefore the fact that a lot of these collections feature unhealthy and fast foods is quite a contradiction. My images range from well know runway designers with collections featured in fashion week to newer designers with quirky styles. Overall, looking deeper into this theme I found that it is a popular theme for designers to choose with many branching off in different directions to express the theme.
